Schools: Southern Methodist University • Temerlin Advertising Institute • SMU Temerlin Advertising Institute
Description
This campaign shines a light on the dedication and skill of Special Olympians, celebrating their pursuit of greatness in the very same events as Olympians. From the grace of gymnastics to the endurance of long-distance running, these athletes demonstrate resilience, passion, and excellence on the world’s biggest stage—yet their achievements often go unnoticed. By drawing a direct comparison to the events of the Olympics, this campaign challenges perceptions and invites us to give Special Olympians the recognition and celebration they’ve earned. It’s a reminder that greatness knows no bounds and deserves to be seen, shared, and celebrated by all.
